Hi all, Replies requested. Short replies only. Read on. Just a short reply with bug numbers or links to the bugs is all we need here. Please move specific discussions into the bugs themselves or start a new thread to talk about it... Replies on this thread should just be a collector for bug numbers.
Example one-line reply: http://public.kitware.com/Bug/view.php?id=8707 We are planning for CMake 2.8.6 already, and it's going to be a compressed release cycle this time around. We're targeting Sept. 14, 2011 for releasing it, and in order to make that happen we'll have to do an "rc1" as early as Aug 10th or 17th... just 2 or 3 weeks from now. Since we released CMake 2.8.5 less than three weeks ago, we now need to prioritize bug fixes for the next release of CMake. And we probably only have time to get a few handfuls of them addressed. If you have a particular issue that you think should be fixed for inclusion in 2.8.6, please bring it up by Wed. Aug 3 at the latest. Ideally, each issue will be discussed as needed on the mailing list to come to any consensus about what should be done to fix it, and then an entry in the bug tracker may be used to keep it on the radar screen, and to track activity related to it. Patches are always welcome. Patches that include testing of any new features, or tests that prove a bug is really fixed on the dashboards, basically any patch with testing is preferred over a patch with no testing. Also, if you are *adding* code, then you also probably need to add *tests* of that code, so that the coverage percentage stays as is or rises. Please discuss issues here as needed, and add notes to existing issues in the bug tracker that you are interested in seeing fixed for 2.8.6 -- we will be looking at the mailing list and activity in the bug tracker to help prioritize the bug fixes that will occur over the next few weeks. Thanks, David Cole Kitware, Inc. P.S. - as a nice summary of what we accomplished in the CMake 2.8.5 release, including contributions from 33 individuals around the world, see here: http://public.kitware.com/Bug/changelog_page.php?version_id=84 -- it currently lists 80 issues that we resolved: nice job, everybody! (Many of those were specifically addressed because somebody brought it up in response to my similar email from just after 2.8.4... Don't be shy!)
